The design takes inspiration from scenes along the Mediterranean coast. Sand coloured Tasmanian Oak, Italian terrazzo, and gentle drapery aim to evoke emotions of nostalgia towards past travels. Ergonomic furniture and acoustic timber ceilings provide the utmost comfort and support.
A methodical approach was taken for the spatial layout, with inspiration drawn from the symmetrical floor plans of European Renaissance Architecture. The layout places the social areas towards the centre, surrounded by a circular array of the more private zones. This approach means areas where the most time is spent have access to the views, evoking a sense of freedom that ensures the best possible working environment.
